If it's changing so much my first instinct would be that I'm not standing in the right lane and look for another one. E.g. aren't you supposed to get a green card if you overcome a certain amount of US local investment? As an experienced businessman maybe that's a better way. Or maybe a politician could grand you a green card if you do enough favours for him (that's how I assume it works in some countries). The most obvious way often is not the right way.

Yes, if you invest at least $1,000,000 and employ more than 10 people for two years you will be eligible to the EB-5 visa. It seems a good way to get a green card if you have the money.
